A successive variation method was studied and tested on the hydrogen molecular ion H 2 + . Results show that it takes less computational time than conventional method. It was also found that ground state wavefunction of H 2 + can be well approximated by the linear combination of the simplest Gaussian orbitals e −I(T‐a)3
